Check your air filter for oil staining indicating excessive oil going through the pcv system, and most likely caused by excessive blow by into the crank case through the rings, mine burned 2qrts of oil every 1k miles and with in a month of a new air filter it had a massive oil stain on it. (Can post picture on Monday when back at work) i had about 30% cyl leakage on cyl #2 but it would never miss fire until max boost near redline. I just did a rebuild a few months back and has been nice to still have full oil after 3k miles of driving. Note i probably started burning small amounts of oil around the 180k mark by 230k i was burning a lot more oil so felt it was time by the time i hit 250k.. i could also give it a full throttle blip while stationary in neutral and a lovely smoke cloud would emit from the tail pipe. Fun fact i'd top off with 10w-40 diesel oil and it slowed down the consumption 😅
